CCTV Newbie Questions

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

 

There is a CCTV system where I work on a no-name DVR that has an apparent internal HDD crash.

 

Info off the DVR reads: Digital Video Recorder, model "G4-HD4E", P/N 1.1.03.01.0294, S/N ZA9ME3720005G4-HD4E; and that's about it. Others have apparently used a WD External HDD successfully but as I plug in a unit, the system doesn't recognize it. (WD# WD5000H1U-00). So my first question centers around getting an external HDD to work with a generic DVR.

 

My second question is around the web interface. I finally got my IE to accept Active-X and was able to get 'web service' albeit, prompting me to select which type (TCP, UDP, Multicast) versus what I *think* is supposed to be the available selection where I would choose between 'Lan' and 'Wan'.

 

Any thoughts and/or helpful ideas are greatly appreciated.

 

TIA
